Powder coating and chlorination are the widely used processes for achieving good donning properties although polymer coating is also in practice with limited reach. With many restrictions being imposed on powder coated gloves, chlorination process is expected to assume bigger role although it poses many challenges like plant corrosion and health hazard.
Taking the environmental restrictions in to consideration the future seems to be with only polymer coating (Polyacrylic or Polyurethane), which is very compatible with both glove and environment.
In styrene acrylic emulsion, which is predominantly used in polymer coating application, styrene and acrylate repeating units form the backbone, in which acrylates are hydrophilic in nature.
Carboxylation of the polymer increases hydrophilicity further and also imparts stability. Styrene-Acrylic polymers are generally with less elastic properties, thus their elongation is comparatively low to that of natural rubber.
RF-8848 is a modified acrylic copolymers emulsion, specially used for dipping coating as the inner lining of nitrile gloves.
The outstanding characteristics of this product are super soft, excellent chemical stability, high resistance to dinning.
